Notes
Keep a close eye on the chocolate while you are melting it. If you’re using a double boiler method, make sure that you have enough water in the bottom of your double boiler so that it doesn’t boil off.
Also, keep an eye on the chocolate to make sure that it melts but doesn’t burn. If you feel it starting to stick to the pan, remove it from the heat.
Don’t have an actual double boiler? Use a fondue pot! If you have a fondue pot lying around, it is a great way to slowly melt the chocolate without the setup of a double boiler.
